Colorful crochet pillows will make every interior cozy. The more pillows the better! They are small so also fast to make. There are so many variations to think of! You can make different surfaces using diverse techniques, patterns, materials.
The front can be unlike the back. Each pillow in the same sofa can be completely unique. You can mix colors and textures depending on what you need or want. It’s also a good way to make use of scraps from previous projects. Take a look at examples below and search for links to free patterns under the pictures.
